| 1st-Timothy 3:1 | This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. | This is a true saying, A man desiring the position of a Bishop has a desire for a good work. | This is a faithful saying: if a man seeks the office of an overseer, he desires a good work. | Stedfast [is] the word: If any one the oversight doth long for, a right work he desireth; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:2 | A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; | The Bishop, then, is to be a man of good name, the husband of one wife, self-controlled, serious-minded, having respect for order, opening his house freely to guests, a ready teacher; | The overseer therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, modest, hospitable, good at teaching; | it behoveth, therefore, the overseer to be blameless, of one wife a husband, vigilant, sober, decent, a friend of strangers, apt to teach, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:3 | Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; | Not quickly moved to wrath or blows, but gentle; no fighter, no lover of money; | not a drinker, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; | not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre, but gentle, not contentious, not a lover of money, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:4 | One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; | Ruling his house well, having his children under control with all serious behaviour; | one who rules his own house well, having children in subjection with all reverence; | his own house leading well, having children in subjection with all gravity, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:5 | (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) | (For if a man has not the art of ruling his house, how will he take care of the church of God?) | (but if a man doesn't know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the assembly of God?) | (and if any one his own house [how] to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?) |
| 1st-Timothy 3:6 | Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. | Not one newly taken into the church, for fear that, through his high opinion of himself, he may come into the same sin as the Evil One. | not a novice, to avoid being puffed up and falling into the condemnation of the devil. | not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall to a judgment of the devil; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:7 | Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. | And he is to have a good name among those outside the church, so that nothing may be said against him and he may not be taken by the designs of the Evil One. | Moreover he must have good testimony from those who are outside, to avoid falling into reproach and the snare of the devil. | and it behoveth him also to have a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:8 | Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; | Deacons, in the same way, are to be serious in their behaviour, not false in word, not given to taking much wine or greatly desiring the wealth of this world; | Deacons, in the same way, must be reverent, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for money; | Ministrants in like manner grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to filthy lucre, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:9 | Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. | Keeping the secret of the faith in a heart free from sin. | holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. | having the secret of the faith in a pure conscience, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:10 | And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. | And let these first be put to the test; then let them become Deacons if there is nothing against them. | Let them also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, if they are blameless. | and let these also first be proved, then let them minister, being unblameable. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:11 | Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. | Women are to be serious in behaviour, saying no evil of others, controlling themselves, true in all things. | Their wives in the same way must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. | Women in like manner grave, not false accusers, vigilant, faithful in all things. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:12 | Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. | Let Deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their houses well. | Let deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. | Ministrants let them be of one wife husbands; the children leading well, and their own houses, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:13 | For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. | For those who have done good work as Deacons get for themselves a good position and become free from fear in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. | For those who have served well as deacons gain to themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. | for those who did minister well a good step to themselves do acquire, and much boldness in faith that [is] in Christ Jesus. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:14 | These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: | I am writing these things to you, though I am hoping to come to you before long; | These things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly; | These things I write to thee, hoping to come unto thee soon, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:15 | But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. | But if I am long in coming, this will make clear to you what behaviour is right for men in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and base of what is true. | but if I wait long, that you may know how men ought to behave themselves in the house of God, which is the assembly of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. | and if I delay, that thou mayest know how it behoveth [thee] to conduct thyself in the house of God, which is an assembly of the living God a pillar and foundation of the truth, |
| 1st-Timothy 3:16 | And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. | And without argument, great is the secret of religion: He who was seen in the flesh, who was given God's approval in the spirit, was seen by the angels, of whom the good news was given among the nations, in whom the world had faith, who was taken up in glory. | Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great: God was revealed in the flesh, Justified in the spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world, And received up in glory. | and, confessedly, great is the secret of piety God was manifested in flesh, declared righteous in spirit, seen by messengers, preached among nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory! |
